China’s president calls for the increased military use of that country’s space assets.
China’s president calls for the increased military use of that country’s space assets.
The article itself is not very informative, other than noting these comments. In fact, it has some errors that suggest the writer knows very little about China’s space effort, both civilian or military.
Nonetheless, China’s president did make this statement, which tells us that it is definitely Chinese policy. Not good.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

And yet some of our fellow space cadets are dismissive of China and what they can accomplish.
But Wodun, Obama promises us there are no threats out there? He’s more afraid of using the nuclear football to hit one of our cities.
China is just as aggressive as the old Soviet Union was back in its heyday.
The only difference is China does it all with a smiling face and genteel platitudes. And they have the patience to take all the time they need to fulfill their eventual plans.
Honest they have no plans what so ever on taking over the whole of Asia.
Honest they have no plans to gain space supremacy.
Which is why private individuals unhampered by government waffling should take the lead in space.
